Is there anything else left to do here? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-07-02 12:05:40] cmb@php.net Related To: Bug #72532 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-07-02 12:03:03] cmb@php.net I can reproduce the described behavior (as of PHP 5.3.18 respectively 5.4.8), see <https://3v4l.org/U9bu8>. Interestingly, silencing the require statement results in no message at all, see <https://3v4l.org/N42dN>. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-06-23 11:10:07] theseer@php.net There seem to be more problems with internally generated errors, as the following testcase demonstrates: <?php set_exception_handler( function(Exception $e){ echo "-- handler --\n"; var_dump($e); exit(1); } ); set_error_handler( function($severity, $message, $file, $line) { throw new ErrorException($message, 0, $severity, $file, $line); } ); try { require 'non-existing-file.php'; } catch (\Exception $e) { echo "-- catch --\n"; var_dump($e); exit(2); } Expected result: Either a "classical" Fatal Error should occur or the warning for the missing file should be converted into an exception which in turn should be caught by catch() or at least by the global exception handler.
